    In reply to Yes, You Can Buy A "Shabbat Shalom, M*****F****R" LeMons Team Shirt!
    This one seems sorta politically incorrect or somethin. I can wear my neon green Driveshaft Through the Skull T-shirt anywhere really. School, hockey games, the garage when I'm working on the Tempo.

    But I think I could offend people by showing up in a Shabbat Shalom M F R shirt.

    @Ford Tempo Fanatic: On the other hand, if it was a Shabbat Shalom MotherFcukeR shirt, I have no doubt it would be readily available at a horrifying shopping mall near you.

    I think the BMW tie is in good taste and classy. However, this tie is a bit garish. #jalopnikholidaygiftguide

    This, along with 99% of all other car logo apparel is very douchey with the following exception: logo is on there because MBZ, BMW, Porsche, et. al. are sponsoring and even (like golf tournament, or charity event) and the get to add their logo to the event materials/apparel. Otherwise it's just like saying, i'm better than you because this is the brand of car I drive. Unless you have a golf shirt with "Pinto" embroidered on it, that would just be bad-ass...I've had a few Bimmers, a couple Porsches and 2 Mercedes, and never, ever have I dawned any apparel to indicate that. I once got a BMW cap as a gift and promptly gave it away, unworn. #jalopnikholidaygiftguide

    As the driver of a '96 Miata, I can safely say that the description of the '94 is accurate. We '96 drivers, on the other hand, are the true connoisseurs of light weight sports cars. Those '94 drivers are philistines with their six fewer horsepower and interior rear view mirrors that are affixed to the windshield header and not glued to the windscreen as God intended.


    I see you are not impressed. We shall settle this on the autocross course. Would you care to step outside, into the parking lot?

    @milo_carrera--eyepatch-free since 1982.: I used to say that my '96's R package was actually not installed, but the prototype Z-71 package was put on instead. The car sat so high that it towered visibly over my '92.


    Oh and @Thrashy, hitter or Cones: We speak reverently of Hollis our father of STS2, and gladly accept the whoopins ladled by him in the hope of further knowledge to be gleaned.
